Twelve Apostles Ocean View

Beaches, rugged coastline and native bushland are all within easy reach of this five-acre property that can sleep up to 7 in a comfortable farmhouse.

The house has three living areas - one with a library - and a kitchen with a view to the Southern Ocean across rolling hills.

The house and property face the ocean, just 7km from the iconic 12 Apostles and the Great Ocean Walk along spectacular cliffs and heath-covered headlands.

Bushland with walking trails, echidnas, kangaroos and native birds is five minutes walk away.

Relax in peace, gazing at the ocean and the unusual mullet pines, while spotting wedge-tailed eagles or watching the dairy cows meander by on neighbouring dairy properties. At night enjoy the Milky Way.

There is a basketball half-court as well as plenty of space for kicking the football or a game of cricket. Croquet and boules available. An outdoor pavilion has a barbecue (Weber) and beautiful elevated ocean views.

Accommodation includes one king-sized bed, and two queen beds. Each room with its own aspect of the garden and beyond. A trundle bed for a child also available.

Meals are easy in the fully equipped kitchen with its espresso coffee machine, electric stove, oven and microwave. Dishwasher also to support the cleaning up. Supplies are 15 minutes away from Timboon or Port Campbell.

Play an old LP record and relax in the south and west facing sun room with views to the ocean. We welcome feedback on the collection and of course what your playlist included.

2 bathrooms with showers (one with separate WC).

It’s rustic, spacious, comfortable and cosy.

Enjoy G.O.R.G.E chocolate factory, a cheese factory, Great Ocean Walk, Timboon Heritage Trail, Twelve Apostles Food Artisans Gourmet Trail, volcanic lakes and so much more in the area.

Nearby is the historic village of Timboon, with it’s Railway Walk through old-growth forests, as well as the fishing-harbour town of Port Campbell and the beaches and rock pools of Peterborough.

Great Location
The location is wonderful and the view is amazing. We arrived on a warm-ish day...while there was air-conditioning in the living room, there were only fans in the bedrooms. Beds were very comfortable and everything we needed was there, but the property could benefit from a bit of updating.

So much potential
Beautiful property. Easy checkin. Decently stocked pantry and all amenities were included. Place especially kitchen needs a thorough declutter and clean. Shelves were dusty and cutlery, serving ware, etc was a bit dirty.

Wonderful stay
The house is most comfortable. It was great to have our dog be able to stay too albeit on the lead outside at all times due to no fencing and proximity to road. A lovely rural district too.

Great Great Ocean Road retreat
Beautiful spot set back from the GOR. Large garden and fantastic views of the countryside. House is a good size and very well stocked with regards to facilities. Constructive feedback - update property description (e.g. there is no table tennis table) and clear out/update garden. Note this feedback did not at all affect our enjoyment of our stay.

A/C not working! No Wood Fireplace as listed, 0700am first morning only enough water for one shower.
I would like a refund thanks Jason as First I booked the wrong dates this cost me two nights Not refundable. Then on day of new booking on arrival the house had a musty smell, A/C not Working, no fireplace as listed, oil heaters supplied, tripped circuit a few times. Hot water ran out morning day2 till am day three. Got a blanket from the cupboard smelt musty. The most expensive booking, accommodation is locked up, not prepared for arrival, poor detail. Other Accomodation on trip higher quality for less money for 1/2 the price. House, needs a thorough clean out and freshen up, washing curtains cushions and de cluttering kitchen cutlery and utensils.
